Reigning PCA High Roller champ Alex Bilokur takes down the €2,100 turbo for €72,000 with a 5am heads-up final flourish.

Alex Bilokur can often be found in a tournament with an iPad on his lap watching some kind of film with swords and wenches. Or he was at the PCA any rate. Things worked out for him pretty well over on Paradise Island at the beginning of the year where he managed to overturn a resurgent Jonathan Duhamel to win the PCA High Roller and $1.1m.

Last night was a different matter. No $25,000 buy-in and lengthy levels where post-flop bluff, thrust and counter mattered, it was all about smashing your chips into the middle in a frenzied explosion of chip battering ram charges.
